Technical field
The present invention is relevant for a kind of integrated circuit, and is particularly to a kind of 3D integrated circuit structure and forming method thereof.
Background technology
Since the invention of integrated circuit since the increase of bulk density and various electronic component (for example: transistor, diode, resistor and electric capacity etc.) development, semiconductor industry has experienced the process of one section fast development.Generally speaking, semi-conductor industry can have development so fast depend on critical size continue dwindle, therefore can in limited zone, pile up more circuit.
Development of integrated circuits comes down to two-dimensional structure, integrated circuit is the surface that is deposited in semiconductor crystal wafer, make two-dimentional integrated circuit that very big progress be arranged though photoetching technique is progressive fast, but bulk density still has many physical restriction in the development of two-dimensional structure, one of them is exactly to need minimum size to form these elements, when more multicomponent is formed on wafer, then need more complicated design.
When number of elements increased, the quantity of interelement lead and length also can produce extra processing procedure restriction, and capacitance-resistance sluggishness and energy consumption also can increase thereupon simultaneously.
For solving the restriction of above-mentioned processing procedure, thereby develop and three-dimensional integrated circuit structure.In the processing procedure of typical three dimensional integrated circuits, form two wafers that have integrated circuit separately earlier.Then, behind the element alignment two wafers are connected.Afterwards, form the element that dark contact plunger connects first and second substrate.
